Quake Lake

It's hard to believe that I can actually remember when this earth quake happened...back in the 50's. I remember that my parents were eating at George K's in Twin Falls, and they said the chandeliers in the restaurant were swinging around. I did NOT remember the devastation that happened here though. 28 people were killed, and dozens were in dangerous conditions. It's interesting to read the stories and watch the movie they have at the visitor's center. Hard to believe that this lake was formed that quickly. Makes you wonder when the next one will be doesn't it?

About Me

I have 3 daughters and 2 sons living. Plus, I married a great guy that has 4 daughters and one son...so we have plenty of kids and grandkids. We have been married for 16 years (my second time around). I worked for Columbia Electric Supply for 33 years, but retired this spring in March. Now we are loving life...4-wheeling, golfing, camping, traveling, crafting, and doing whatever we want. I totally love the freedom. I do miss all the good friends I made during my work years though.
